Job Description

Summary:

Meta's Monetization pillar is at the cutting edge of delivering highly personalized ads that create maximum value for both users and advertisers. Within this pillar, the Ranking & AI (RAI) Research team drives state-of-the-art research initiatives, focusing on high-impact, high-risk projects-true moonshots-with the potential to redefine Meta's monetization strategies. By consistently pushing the boundaries of what's possible, we deliver breakthrough innovations that not only advance Meta's business objectives but also result in publications at top-tier conferences.Inspired by recent breakthroughs in large language models (LLMs), the RAI Sequence Learning team is pioneering a transformative approach to recommender systems. We are reimagining recommendation as a generative sequence modeling problem, moving beyond traditional methods that treat recommendations as classification tasks on pairs. Instead, our approach models user and ad content, as well as historical interaction data, as sequences-unlocking new possibilities for personalization and relevance.As a research scientist on this team, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of technology and business at Meta, especially as we enter the era of artificial general intelligence (AGI). Your contributions will directly influence the trajectory of Meta's monetization strategies and help define the next generation of recommender systems.
